Susan Glaspell

Susan Keating Glaspell (July 1, 1876 – July 27, 1948) was an American Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright, actress, novelist, and journalist. With her husband George Cram Cook she founded the Provincetown Players,〔Ben-Zvi, Linda. "Preface." Preface. Susan Glaspell: Her Life and Times. Oxford University Press, 2005. Ix.〕 the first modern American theater company.〔Sarlós, Robert K. (1984). ("The Provincetown Players' Genesis or Non-Commercial Theatre on Commercial Streets" ), ''Journal of American Culture'', Vol. 7, Issue 3 (Fall 1984), pp. 65–70〕 During the Great Depression she served in the Works Progress Administration as Midwest Bureau Director of the Federal Theater Project.
A prolific writer, Glaspell is known to have composed nine novels, fifteen plays, over fifty short stories, and one biography.〔Ben-Zvi, Linda. "Preface." Preface. Susan Glaspell: Her Life and Times. Oxford University Press, 2005. X.〕 Often set in her native Iowa, these semi-autobiographical tales frequently address contemporary issues, such as gender, ethics, and dissent, while featuring deep, sympathetic characters who make principled stands.
A best-selling author in her own time, Glaspell's novels and plays fell out of print after her death, during which time she was remembered primarily for discovering Eugene O'Neill. Critical reassessment has led to renewed interest in her career,〔Smith, Dinitia. ("Rediscovering a Playwright Lost to Time." ) New York Times June 30, 2005. Theater page. Print.〕 and she is today recognized as a pioneering feminist writer and America's first important modern female playwright.〔Ben-Zvi, Linda (2005). Susan Glaspell: Her Life and Times. Oxford University Press, second cover〕 Her one-act play ''Trifles'' (1916) is frequently cited as one of the greatest works of American theater,〔Carpentier, Martha C. (2008). ("Susan Glaspell: New Directions in Critical Inquiry." ) Cambridge Scholars Publishing, pp. 3〕 though she remains, according to Britain's leading theatre critic Michael Billington, "American drama's best kept secret."〔Billington, Michael. ("Alison's House" ) The Guardian Sunday 11 October 2009. Theatre page.〕
